My suggestion, seek another opinion. I spent 5 years with
low Hgb. and
low ferritin, as
low as 4. The Dr. never seemed concerned but I would keep going back with other complaints, fatigue, inability to connect, concentrate, very cold, muscle aches and cramps...etc...The Dr. I was seeing, kept increasing my iron supplements to the point of terrible constipation..the iron tablets did NOTHING. I then moved to a different state, saw a new Dr.
